Journal ArticleDOI
The use of wearable microsensors to quantify sport-specific movements
TL;DR: The ability of microsensors to capture sport-specific movements emphasises the capability of this technology to provide further detail on athlete demands and performance and highlights the need to validate the ability of wearable micros Sensors containing accelerometers, gyroscopes and magnetometers to detect tackles in collision sports, as well as other contact events such as the ruck, maul and scrum in rugby union.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A practical guide to strategic planning, analysing, interpreting and applying athlete monitoring data in the sporting environment irrespective of data management software is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Repeated sprint training in hypoxia – an innovative method
TL;DR: RSH is of unprecedented interest in the altitude training area with 25 studies published in the 5-year period following the pioneer article in 2013, and with only two studies that did not report any beneficial effects.
Journal Article
Effects of combined foot/ankle electromyostimulation and resistance training on the in-shoe plantar pressure patterns during sprint in young athletes
TL;DR: FAST program induced significant promising lateral and unwanted posterior transfer of the plantar loads without affecting significantly sprinting performance, and results showed no significant pre- to post- changes in sprint performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Repeated-Sprint Training in Hypoxia in International Rugby Union Players
TL;DR: Although the improvement from RSA to game behavior remains unclear, this finding appears to be of practical relevance as only a short preparation window is available prior to international rugby union games.
